#twst! jack skellington

[italoniponic]

happy announcements, everybody! I saw this on my feed today, very fittingly and I decided to be funny

[shxuga]

Such a gentleman 💀🖤

[viviraptor-art]

GUYS… 💀

Skully J. “I greet you with a kiss” Graves

You wake up in his arms after blacking out

Calls you “my dear” and “lovely”/“wonderful” even though we literally just met

Comments that your names are beautiful

Offers to escort you (well, Trey technically) through the woods even though Skully has no idea where tf he’s going

Remarks that it would be nice to hold hands and stroll through the forest together

He tends to use the term "fated" to refer to things he has in common with others

Is the first character in all of Twst to have a BLUSHING face

He holds your hand and kisses you (on the back of it??) without even waiting or asking for your okay (avert your eyes, Grim…)????

HE ALSO KISSES GRIM AND ALL THE OTHER BOYS ON THE HAND

HE KISSES YUU MULTIPLE TIMES THROUGHOUT THIS EVENT

HE WALKED OUT OF a DAtinG SIM 😭

Other Skully facts:

He’s taller than Malleus (not including the horns, just judging by the models) and Sebek (stated explicitly in the dialogue)

He’s is a first year student

He’s 16, same age as the other first years (though Skully only recently turned 16)

Speaks very respectfully, even to fellow first years (Riddle remarks on Skully being very gentlemanly and even Vil calls Skully elegant)

He refers to himself using an archaic form of “I” (wagahai)

HE’S AN OTAKU FOR HALLOWEEN, he calls Jack Skellington “Jack Skellington-sama” and says Jack is the person he admires the most dbsksbsiqguzvs

Skully asks everyone else call him Jack-sama too

He comes from a small isolated fog-shrouded rural village; it is located at the bottom of a valley

His hometown considers Jack Skellington the founder of Halloween; Jack Skellington is not known outside of this village

The people in Skully’s hometown love Halloween and its founder, Jack

He seems to be sleep deprived???

Skully tries to tell others at his school about Halloween and Jack, but his peers don’t listen and get mad at him

Skully doesn’t like to talk about his school (and seems to actively dislike it, calling his classmates fools and asking to avoid the topic of school)

He self-admits to not having many people who understand him

Confirmed a mage (Leona says he has the same amount of magic as Epel), but he doesn’t have a magical pen/doesn't seem to know what they are???

He doesn't know Malleus either.

Skully claims he was also sucked into the book while attending the used book fair in Foothill Town

Chunibyo?? Like, he presents as mysterious initially but actually has very excitable reactions to things, lots of purple prose too

Leona calls him a BADGER

He calls his classmates “worthless” for not understanding/listening to him

He thinks lowly of those who disagree with his opinions on Halloween; there is a drastic shift in his personality when the NRC students express dissent

Skully’s ideal Halloween is solemn and desolate, involving: beating up all ghosts, painting rooms entirely black, no decorations, and no music

This is how his village spends Halloween, in solemn silence; Skully grew up thinking this is how it always is

He likes classical music and opera

He acts gentlemanly because he believes Jack is also a gentleman

He wants to learn piano someday

Skully believes that staying traditional and respecting and protecting the past is important

Details about his unique magic

(Side note: GRIM’S NEW oUTFIT 👌 He looks perfect in that suit!! LOOKS At HIS WIDDLE PAW gLOVES… And the chest fluff sticking out gives the illusion of a cravat! Aaaaaah, so cute 💕)

[egophiliac]

still ruminating over Lost In the Book With Spooky Skeletons Part 1, so here's a selection of some of my favorite little bits! (...some more loosely paraphrased than others) (I just feel like Idia has no room to criticize in general, okay)

anyway, I'm sure we're just going to have a fun time celebrating Halloween and nothing bad is going to happen whatsoever! :)

ジャックモチーフのお方

ついにtwstに人生の推し作品・キャラクターモチーフのお方が 来てしまいました 大好きです ありがとうございます(;ᴗ;) イベントが待ち遠しいです…

[cosmonavo]

I know he (probably) doesn't have that literal skeletal body underneath his clothes, but still a pretty comical scenario to me frr

Imagine him talking to MC "u wanna touch?"

And she just "you know how fucking weird it sound??"

[tartppola]

be comfortable in your own skin!

i rewatched nightmare before christmas for this event hehfheheh this just me projecting jack skellington's impulsive but well meaning personality onto twst gojo-skellington, he encourages yuulis to embrace their stitches for his halloween plans/the halloween spirit!! or holiday spirit?? depending on how the event goes HAHASGDHAHA yuulis gets one halloween npc friend... as a treat....

[captaindysdexic]

He looks like his natural resting face would be :3

[ventique18]

Leona: "Oi Jack... No, this feels like calling our dog back home. I'm getting you mixed up..."

HE CALLS JACK HOWL HIS DOG 😭 So he just starts calling Jack Skellington "Skellington" to avoid confusion.

[honehonn3honey]

Look at him is a loser, cutie let me sleep there 😵‍💫

[Alt under the cut]

Version with glasses and reference why not?

[nekoyawn5]

Showing the Nendoroid ❗❗❗

Also take a look at this Malleus Nendo I attempt to redraw from the official GSC page. Why his weapon/staff(?) is difficult to draw 🚶

I also just realize the nendo give Malleus green-ish colored mullet.

Some notes added: For some reason I can't find Jack Skellington Nendoroid page on Offical GSC page. I have to look at his Amazon page.

The Nightmare before Christmas continues after Halloween 🎃👻

“Overblotting Jade Leech and Spooky Zero, at your service.”

[sleepypandazzz09]

Quick sketch of Leona. I wanted to know what he’d look like with his bangs

[raven-at-the-writing-desk]

l*ona 😶

(Consider this a spiritual sequel to this post, lol)

Leona: gets in a foul mood the INSTANT he sees Malleus, is completely fine with the idea of pummeling Skully, thinks Jack Skellington is suspicious and threatening them (despite Jack not really doing anything to suggest he has ill intent), is pissed this entire event with Skully’s mere existence/j

Also Leona: calls Sally a lady, fetches grass for her, is willing to eat anything she makes (yes, even if it doesn’t have meat and the main ingredient is just GRASS), praises her for poisoning her caretaker to escape her captivity (he says he RESPECTS her for doing this and that she’s strong 😭), offers Sally his arm to escort her to dinner which explains all the fan art I’ve been seeing—

THE JUXTAPOSITION…
